Hugh Jackman is looking to make the second "Wolverine" movie huge and not just in ticket sales. Director Darren Aronofsky has already asked him to gain 25 pounds of muscle which is not easy for him because of his size and frame. So what would anyone else do who was looking to pack on 25 pounds of muscle?
You call "The Rock!"
"I had a chat with Dwayne Johnson, who did 25 pounds for his movie," Jackman says, referring to Johnson’s latest, Faster. “I rang him up and was like, Okay, tell me what’s going on.” The answer: Six months, a pound a week, 6,000 calories a day which, Jackman points out, is an awful lot of chicken, steak, and brown rice.
Jackman continues that he is very excited about re-teaming with Darren Aronofsky and filming will begin next Spring and the sequel is expected to hit in 2012.
"We had a meeting about three weeks ago, catching up as friends more than anything, and he just ran a few ideas by me and my eyes just lit up, because already I think this is like a whole new ballgame – just the ideas, the level of depth, and intelligence, and creativity. I think he’s been waiting so long to do a movie in this genre. When he found the script, he said this is it. It’s really exciting."
